What are the Black Armbands for?
After the tragic terror attack in Pahalgam, Kashmir, which resulted in the loss of 26 lives, the BCCI has taken specific measures to honor the victims during the IPL 2025 fixture between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Mumbai Indians. The match, held at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, will see several planned activities which are to be held back as a mark of respect and national mourning. The officials have decided there will be no fireworks during or after the match, and cheerleaders will not be part of the on-ground entertainment. These actions aim to maintain a somber and respectful atmosphere, aligning with the country’s collective grief.
Additionally, players and umpires will wear black armbands throughout the game to pay tribute to those who lost their lives. A one-minute silence will be observed before the first ball is bowled. The decisions were made to reflect solidarity with the victims and acknowledge the seriousness of the national tragedy, ensuring that the spirit of the game is balanced with a moment of remembrance.
What to expect from SRH vs MI Match?
Apart from the planned activities made by officials, the match will still be holding the same high-voltage environment against each other. MI who are looking to safeguard their winning momentum, on the other hand, SRH aiming to win at their home ground, will surely make this game one to watch out for in IPL. As this match not only holds a win and points, but also the result for who stays in contention for the playoff race for IPL 2025.
